im
glad you had a great b day mom and im glad you enjoyed it so much. we had a
good week here too. we have been seeing more success in the zone as far
as baptismal dates go, but the investigators still aren't attending
church very much.... we are praying hard and are hoping for some miracles this week. we have been finding lots of prepared people these
last few days and have been able to meet almost all our goals. prayer is
real and when we do our part, heavenly father will always do his part.
on
wednesday we have the chance to watch a special world wide missionary
broadcast from the fisrt presidency. it s specially for missionaries in
all parts of the world and im super excited. we are going to eat papa
johns for lunch as a zone before the conference and then watch it all
together in a stake center in rancagua.
